Rumsfeld's Ego May Delay Gates' Swearing In
Click here to read this embarrasing story.

<snip>

Officially, the White House spin is that Robert Gates will be sworn in as Rumsfeld's replacement -- two weeks after his confirmation -- once Gates winds up affairs as president of Texas A&M University.

But Gates on Nov. 8 announced he would quit A&M on "completion of the confirmation process and a Senate vote."
